The 2011 ICUEE, International Construction and Utility Equipment Exposition will be held October 4-6 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. Features include new safety equipment demonstrations and the return of the ICUEE Ride & Drive for attendees interested in on-road commercial vehicles.
This year ICUEE has added crane and rigging safety demonstrations from the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators and International Powered Access Federation, with a focus on ensuring adequate ground support for the machine and load carried.
ICUEE will also again feature a general show safety demo area, which has focused on topics such as live-line safety and pole top/fall protection. The New Products & Technologies Preview will once again be a staple in this year’s event, spotlighting exhibitors’ latest innovations. They will be marked with special signage on the show floor.
The addition of the exhibitor demo schedule and Technical Experts Directory, which can be found at www.icuee.com, allows participants to see all of the demonstrations available to them and plan their trip accordingly.
